Compression is another composition tool that is almost always overlooked. Everyone is obsessed with smaller F. However if you have the space compression can create really impressive results! Also definitely gonna move you out of your comfort zone 😁
Agreed! I didn’t want to get too into the weeds with this video, just a basic for beginners. Obviously there are other things to discuss like how aperture works with it, but I just wanted something easy for other to understand as they start out. Thanks for the kind words and watching!
Sorry, but you're ignoring specifically the compression and looking over the other aspects of the longer length result. For example, MFT vs full frame, to get the same aspects, in full frame at 200mm f5.6 looks the same on MFT at 100mm f2.8. The MFT can't reach the same depth of field with the same aperture, to make it work the MFT must always use the half fstop of full frame when using a lens with the half length of FF, now you can get the same results. I mean the difference of quality decreased so much because you have shown is a crop from 24mm to fit between 70mm to 200mm, you got a smaller piece of your sensor, even that, it is still possible to compare the depth of field once you multiply the fstop used at 24mm to equal the length on following crops, as for 24mm f2.8 to 70mm f8 or 200mm f22 (f23.3 to be more accurate). Once you do that, except for the different pixel density from a smaller piece of sensor, you can compare the compression and how the background shows itself very similar between each other.
I was going to say that whatever the meaning of compression is, if there is such thing, the video is very confusing about the meaning. If it is the apparent distance to the background, then there is obviously no difference between cropping and shooting at longer focal length. If it is about depth of field, you are absolutely right, changing the aperture diameter between shots only shows a lack of understanding of how DOF works. Then all the additional observations about details and artifacts related to pixel density just adds to the confusion.
NICE BREAKDOWN!
Thank you! Fun stuff!

Excellent breakdown and video !
Thank you!! Glad to help!
Great demonstration!
Glad you enjoyed it!!
Wow thank you, I think I am slowly getting what compression really is!!
Thank you so much! Trying to keep it easy!
great video!
Thanks for watching!! I appreciate the kind words!
